Brother
be sensible! Sita is another’s wife. How cans a raja who practices dharma
lays his hands on somebody’s else wife? Ravana, beware! You are carrying
a poisonous snake in your arms. You are putting death’s noose around your
neck.

Valmiki
- Ramayana

ANGER

Ne
se fâche pas avec moi qui veut

Charles
Maurice prince de Talleyrand Périgord

Anger
is momentary madness, so control your passion or it will control you

Horace

An angry
man opens his mouth and shuts his eyes

Cato

GREED

Just
as it is impossible to know when a fish moving in water is drinking it,
so it is impossible to find out when government servants in charge of
undertakings misappropriate money

Kautilya
The Arthashastra

Almost
unbelievably – in view of India’s ancient respect for right conduct, for
good order and for law, - the corrupt seem to have acquired a new aura
of social acceptability.
